[QUOTE="handsome, post: 1100440, member: 772"] Capacitors are basically frequency dependant resistors their resistance varies with the frequency of the signal passing through them - they cannot pass DC which is 0Hz, as the frequency rises so their resistance decreases. So smaller caps in a given xover/filter will let through less bass frequencies. Google crossover or filter calculators and fiddle with some values in a 1st order filter (the simplest type just one capacitor and a resistor) - it is pretty intuitive. [/QUOTE]
